Thread: Something is wrong with my guessing game!

I agree, and you need to rethink the goto's as well, you must be coming from a BASIC background. While there are some legitimate uses of goto in c++, it should be avoided.

I compiled it and it worked fine for me, even when I guessed right on the last guess. So not sure what's happening with yours.
